Mirimichi Green Introduces Soluble Microbial Powder Into Product Offering
Mirimichi Green has launched a new soluble microbial powder, ByoSpxtrum, into their product offering that is all-natural and will improve the organic matter in the soil.
Mirimichi Green is a developer of effective, sustainable, bio-based products for the professional landscape industry. The company’s new product is a complex combination of microbes, known soil-plant amending ingredients, critical enzymes, and the most effective microbe food sources all rolled into one product called ByoSpxtrum.

- Invigorates root growth
- Helps break down soil compaction
- Enhances resistance to drought, pests, and disease
- Improves photosynthetic performance
- Improves nutrient uptake
- Does not contain fillers

Unlike other soluble powder inoculations on the market, ByoSpxtrum activates to full life in seconds due to the proprietary process that avoids stunning or harming the microbes. The product is 100% non-GMO, non-synthetic, and does not contain fillers.
The easy-to-use powder is offered in a 17-ounce pouch and covers 5 acres once diluted. Simply add 4-8 ounces of water for every 1 ounce of product. ByoSpxtrum is also available for purchase at any of Mirimichi Green’s distributors’ locations. Click here to find a distributor closest to you.
